Nah

It is not gentle, it does not remove all makeup and it does not help with acne in long game

Maybe if you want to wash your face with it twice

I used to like this...
I used to like this cleanser, but they changed the ingredients. It now has ingredients that clog my pores like laureth-4. Why do they have to change what ain't broken!?

What do you use now? I have the same issue you are explaining. Does your replacement work?

Pros:

Visible reduction in acne.
Tingly, fresh feeling when applied.
Nice consistency!

Cons:

Gives my skin a chemical burn.

I have verrry tough skin! Baking soda masks, strong acne treatments of benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, retinol, glycolic acid, lemon juice etc have never overly irritated or burned my skin. But for some reason, every time I apply this cleanser my skin starts to burn and turns an inflamed, puffy red color that lasts several days. Nothing else does that. :| No idea why. I tried to use it several times, with the same result every time.

Pros:

Gets rid of acne and prevents new acne...for the most part.

Cons:

bleaches my hair, makes my skin feel extremely tight, never fails to make my skin shiny all day, burns, causes my skin to get red and itchy whenever i sweat, you have to take it 3 times a day or else you will severely breakout.

Dont ever get this product. You would highly regret it...trust me. I have been using this for over a year now because there is no other medication that really works for me, but thats besides the point. This has made my brown hair completely blonde in the front, made my skin feel as if it were trapped underneath of a mask all day long, made my skin awfully oily and shiny and wherever i go, people ask me why my face is so shiny and ask me if i have highlights in my hair and im sick of it. If you are EXTREMELY desperate to get rid of acne, buy this product, since its your only hope but if you just have average to minor acne, dont get it.

Pros:

- got rid of inflammatory acne (pimples & papule)
- non drying

Cons:

- made my skin oily
- caused an increase of whiteheads/blackheads
- left some residue on my skin
- It's not oil-free

I got this a few months ago and after using it for a while it got rid of all of the pimples and papule that were on my forehead and nowadays I rarely get a pimple or papule. On the other side..this caused me to break out in whiteheads/blackheads. My face has become Comedone City with large amounts of whiteheads and blackheads. I recently stopped using this because it's gotten really bad..also I don't like how it leaves residue deposits on my face which is most likely the cause of the comedones.

Pros:

Minimize the size of my pimple.

Cons:

Dries out the area around my mouth, leaving it like a burn and red. It's You have to use a mosturizer.

Bottom line, only use it if you have really oily skin. Do not use it several times on your face. Only in the morning, afternoon and night when you're going to bed.

Pros:

Cheap
Buy locally
Creamy texture
High concentration of BP

Cons:

Didn't clear acne
Contains mineral oil and petrolem

This cleanser did not work for me. It is like most of the other cleansers out there. It's nothing special. I also looked at the ingredients and it contains mineral oil and petrolem which isnt too good for your skin. It works alright, but definatly not the best!

Pros:

You could really feel this cleanser cleaning away at your skin. Personally, I love the cooling after-effect.

Cons:

After washing, I'd get this crazy oil build up in matter of minutes!

This cleanser is not built for overtime usage. I've come to realize that my skin after 2-3 washes, would get immune to this product. So it no longer works. Sure, at first, my skin adapted great, aftwards......It just built up more oil! And my acne would get red as well.
